Partial Dentures
in Tamworth

Natural Teeth
Replacements

If you have lost some of your teeth one of the gap management options which may be suitable is partial dentures. These are dentures that will replace only a partial area of your mouth, and will fit alongside your remaining teeth. Like all dentures, the partial dentures can be custom made out of a variety of material and we will discuss the various suitable options to you at the free consultation.

When getting any form of denture, one of the most common questions to ask is how the denture will be secured or fixed in place. One such method is through the use of precision clasps, that use your remaining teeth to hook on to. The downside to this method is that it is prone to loosening and they are not as well fitted as they could be. When making any denture it is very important to ensure that they are very precise and snug, as they will be a more comfortable and functional denture. Another way to secure the denture in place is known as the bridge denture. This is a fixed partial denture and will utilise the teeth adjacent to the gap. This does require those teeth to be prepared to allow for the crowns and bridge to be put in place.

The main types of materials used in partial dentures are either acrylic or metal. Different materials are better suited for different cases and we will explain what is suitable for you at the free consultation.

Recently had a new top Denture made, the fit was superb. With my previous denture I needed to use dental fixative daily and it still would rock, but my new denture made by Julian Smith is perfect I use very little fixative and it lasts at least 48 to 72 hours now. Thank you for the quality professional service.

Do I Need a Partial Denture?

If you have lost a tooth or have multiple missing teeth, then a partial denture may be suitable for you. Losing teeth can occur due to natural factors such as ageing or can even be down to accidents. However you lose your teeth, it is important to effectively manage the gap well. This is so you have the functionality and aesthetics that are associated with having teeth.

If you are due to have teeth extracted your dentist will discuss the options to manage the gap afterwards, to limit the time you are without teeth. The first step to getting dentures will be to have primary impressions taken which are used to make special trays at the laboratory. Secondary impressions will then be taken in the special tray which will give your dentist more accurate measurements for your new denture. When you first have your completed denture to be worn it may be uncomfortable at first but it is very important it is worn initially to help stop your remaining teeth from shifting following an extraction. It is quite common to also need a reline once you have your denture so tiny adjustments can be made to ensure it is comfortable and precise for you.

Keeping Your Denture Clean

Your denture is very important and will need the same level of care as your natural teeth would. Daily cleaning is always recommended and there is even cleaners that can be bought specifically for dentures.

When cleaning you need to always take care as they can become slippy and fall from your hand. They are very delicate when dropped from a height and can easily break. We recommend putting down a soft towel in the basin to catch them in case they are dropped.

Dave Cunningham

Couldn’t fault this dentist. Chipped my tooth and they got me in same day to check if it could be fixed and even managed to fix it there and then, for a fraction of the price I was expecting. Dentist James was brilliant along with all the staff I encountered!

If like me you have had bad experiences in the past then this is the place to come to.I have been coming here now for two years to finally get the smile i am proud of.I had root canals carried out by Dr Jessal his skill and knowledge is amazing he is clearly at the very top of his profession,i never suffered any pain during or after and returned back to work that same day i can not thank him enough.

A short time after it was time for my crown work to begin and this was carried out by Dr Gursh who whitened my teeth and sorted out my new crowns which look so natural against my other teeth and a perfect fit first time,another top professional who cares and is passionate about getting that perfect smile, you cannot tell they are crowns amazing.

Now after my treatment i return to the hygienist Anita who keeps my teeth looking amazing.
I cannot thank all the staff that work here enough they make a perfect team and they really do care.

Would recommend 110%. I found the clinic based on the proximity to my house and Google reviews. Extremely good experience (especially considering you’re going to the dentist office!). I was booked for an emergency visit with Dr Jesal Savania, whom I would highly recommend. I had a wisdom tooth removal, which I didn’t expect to happen on the day of the visit. I had a similar procedure done 10 years ago, which was very painful and traumatic. Dr Savania is a compassionate, professional dentist who calmed me down and he did the procedure in record time, with absolutely no pain. I came back to Dr Savania a few weeks after for a general check up – he is probably the best dentist I have been too and will definitely go back.

Karen Sally

I am a nervous patient and recently have had a fair amount of much needed dental work carried out at Ascent dental care in Tamworth. Everyone at the practice from the women on reception to the 3 practitioners I have had treatment from have been amazing. They have all made me feel respected, reassured and safe, the care and quality of treatment from the practitioners has been excellent. They have explained everything very clearly and listened to my concerns and answered all my questions. Also, I can honestly say that the treatment has been painless. I will never look forward to visiting the dentist but I am much more reassured that I will be taken care of and my dental care is in the safest and most professional hands!
